Will Job Testing Harm Minority Workers?

Because minorities typically fare poorly on standardized tests, job testing is thought to pose an equity-efficiency trade-off: testing improves selection but reduces minority hiring. We develop a conceptual framework to assess when this tradeoff is likely to apply and evaluate the evidence for such由于少数群体在标准化测验（standardized tests）中通常表现欠佳，求职测试（job testing）被认为会引发公平与效率的权衡（equity-efficiency trade-off）：测试虽可优化人员选拔效果，却会降低少数群体的录用比例。我们构建了一套概念框架，用以评估该权衡可能适用的场景，并评估此类相关证据。
